What's changing
Usage limits for Gemini Apps
Gemini will move to compute-based usage limits that will refresh every 5 hours until you reach your weekly limit. Calculation of your usage will factor in the complexity of your prompt, the features you use, and the length of your chat. Paid users have higher limits than users without a Google AI subscription.
Premium models and features require more usage and may cause you to reach your limit faster. This would include things like:
- Media generation
- Images, videos and music
- Deep Research
- Pro Model
- Extended thinking and Deep Think
Usage limits
| Plan | Limit |
| Without a plan | Standard limits |
| AI Plus | 2x higher than standard limits |
| AI Pro | 4x higher than standard limits |
| AI Ultra | 5x or 20x higher than AI Pro depending on your subscription |
